Story
Boomer is approximately 1.5 years, around 22 pounds, neutered, fully vaccinated Maltese mix breed. He will be crate trained but needs patience with potty & leash training~ soon he will be a pro of all three!! He is affectionate, but can be a bit nervous when first met with unexpected changes. Boomer gets along well with most dogs (but we suggest he be paired with a female companion), adults and older children alike. Given his adaptability, he should be able to learn your family’s routine rather quickly and become part of the gang in no time!!! Boomer was found on the streets of TJ left on his own. When found He suffered from ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis. Fortunately he is now healthy & flourishing under the loving care of a foster. (Oct 2025) Boomer has a lot of love to give and longs for a family who can provide him patience, affection and attention he craves. He deserves a warm and loving home where he can feel cherished as a member of the family!!!

Story
ABOUT ME: She's affectionate, enjoys going for walks, being petted, and being indoors with company. She loves balls.

Yes *Territory marking and bittng issues: None *Food Aggressive ? No *Does it need a house with a yard? No *Does it need a dog sibling? Not necessarily *Can it live in an apart- ment? Yes. She is a warrior, she is a survivor of that terrible disease called Dispenser, she has a small tic in her head, but it is almost nonexistent. RESCUE STORY:. It was reported that a neighbor had Jessie in a utility area less than 5 meters away in neglected and unsanitary conditions. She was rescued with many parasites and in her feces. At first, she was very fearful of the outdoors because she hadn't interacted with other animals or people for most of her life, but little by little, she adapted. As a puppy, she developed distemper, resulting in a spasm on her left side.

Story
Over the past year, our family's schedule and responsibilities have changed significantly. We've tried our best to make it work, but we've come to a difficult decision that it's time to find a new home for Mia where she can get regular routine, playtime, and exercise. Mia is 3 years old. She is sweet, affectionate, and smart. She loves daily walks, cuddles, and playing fetch. Our goal is to place Mia in a safe, calm, loving home. Mia is spayed, crate-trained, and tray-trained. We'll provide her medical records and transition supplies. The adoption fee helps cover her spay and vaccinations.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Hash was adopted when he was 3 months old and is now 4 years old. He’s a sweet, friendly, playful boy who loves people and brings a lot of joy to everyone he meets. He enjoys playtime, attention, and being part of the action—whether that’s a walk around the neighborhood, a fun outing, or just hanging out with his humans. As our family has grown, our routines and available time have changed in ways we didn’t expect. This has been a difficult decision, and we’re only considering rehoming because we truly believe Hash deserves a home that can give him more consistent exercise, enrichment, and adventure than we’re able to provide right now. We want to find him a loving home where he can get plenty of daily playtime, regular walks, and opportunities to go out and explore. Our priority is finding the right match so he can thrive and continue being the happy, affectionate companion he is. He is tray/pad-trained. Adoption fee covers his neuter and vaccinations.
